[@deniseholmes7958]

Congratulations on your Wonderpens adventure! 🎉This librarian thanks you so much for being grateful for libraries😍

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much Denise! My second home

[@hammyyam]

I love how everyone starts fall decorating in September, when summer doesn't end until late September 😂💕

Summer ends in September where I’m from. Arctic Norway. So I start now because the leaves are already falling off 😊

While insomnia kicks my butt, I get to watch a new video from my fav planner girlie ❤❤❤ Congrats on all the success that continues to come your way Helen, it's very well deserved ❤

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Aww thank you so much love 🥹🥹🥹 I hope the sleep gods bless you with a good night of sleep today

[@ellesbooks]

Perfect company for a Sunday journal session 🥰 also I’m totally with you about journal prompts - having to write up a deep, emotionally draining revelation about your life every single day is a bit much!!!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Have a wonderful rest of your day Elle!!! Hahaha yep 🤣 Sometimes I just want to think about the reason for my existence!!!

[@nnmarshall]

The most relaxing moment of the week 💕

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hehe hope your Sunday is a great one!

[@amyalphabet722]

It blows my mind that you haven't had a chance to see your artwork in a retail shop yet!! I remember the first time I saw your washi and some sticker sheets in WonderPens, I was so excited. It has also been SO FUN watching the WP team members get to know you through your customers - everyone always seems genuinely impressed by your success and the diehard loyalty of your taters! I'm looking forward to the end of the month -- I haven't seen you since Planners Gonna Plan (was that the name? It feels like a lifetime ago!) in the Fall of 2019!, so I can't wait to take your journaling workshop on the 28th, squeeeee!!!!!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

I know!!! I did a mental double-take just to make sure... and yep, this will be my first time! So excited to see you again Amy! It has been a long, long time since then haha

[@just__celia]

I always look forward to your weekly videos. So calming and inspirational.

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you for being here every week Celia! I appreciate youuuu~

Thank you for your video. I love the music you use; I feel like I’m in a cozy coffee shop somewhere, listening to my friend Helen. I love your soothing voice as well ! You are an incredible person - love your creative work. 👍🏻🌹😁

[@Planwithlatifa]

Truly enjoy this video and love the handwriting as always

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much Latifa!! I hope you have been well!!

[@TheBohemianStyle]

I agree with you on the gratitude prompts. I use ones that are meaningful to me, and things I hope to have in the future. I might be able to come and see you, but I’m not sure due to getting ready for thanksgiving and my budget.

[@apaperylife2096]

So excited to attend your workshop with Lauren and Ellie!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Ahhhh omg which session??? Thank you all 🥹🥹

SO EXCITED FOR THE WORKSHOP

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

LOVE YOU 3!!

[@jagratisart1899]

You always have such a big list of work and you manage to finish it too. If it was me I would get overwhelmed, keep procrastinating, and scroll on my phone😂. How do you motivate yourself to do so much work? Take care of yourself . ❤😢

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Ahh thank you friend! I have a lot of unfinished to-do lists so I'm definitely not perfect! What works for me is having set work blocks with breaks in between. Formally known as the pomodoro method, but I don't really follow it exactly.

[@jagratisart1899]

@@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo thank u so much for this tip .😊I’ll definitely try it. :)

[@terable86]

As someone who works in a library, I have to agree. 📚🖤

Happy Sunday 🎉

Happy Sunday Stareena!!

I finally caught up with your pwm and august flipthrough ❤ l admire your spread and reading journal, Helen. Especially the canvas with color dots

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hehehe hope you had a fun vacayyy

[@emilygiron2845]

I love your journaling prompts! That certainly has helped me. Thank you!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Glad it was helpful!!!

[@CreatingWonderland]

Thank you for sharing! I’ve been in a dailies rut so this was encouraging and inspiring ❤ I can’t wait to get my hands on the new washis! 😮

[@cheryldailey5310]

Yay for collabs!!! The Wonder Pens set v. 2 looks great! I just have the larger roll of v. 1. Being around people drains me, too. I'm very shy around people I don't know. I'm happy for everyone who is attending your workshops or popping into Wonder Pens. One day I'm going to go visit my friend Sophie in Toronto and check out the shop. ❤

[@Alexandra_Sakhalin]

Привет с Сахалина Спасибо большое за ваши видео, за ответы на вопросы. Я с удовольствием пользуюсь перьевой ручкой и получаю удовольствие от каждой написанной буквы❤

[@christinebedford3047]

I love your spreads they give me so much inspiration 😊

[@SherilynLeanne]

Really enjoyed this video Helen ❤

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much Sherilynnnn~ 🥹

[@NixiEvans]

I love your journaling videos so much Helen. They inspire me to journal and plan, the only problem is that i do it after i watch your videos, and then i completely forget to do it again lmao haha

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Ahh thank you so much Nixi!!! I'm glad it helps you even a bit hehe

[@ChantelleArts]

September is indeed perfect for fall. And yes, I love your journal prompts - mix of fun and life changing questions.🎉

This is so inspirational and I'm glad to have chanced upon your video. :) I was contemplating to get the Hobonichi 2025, but I checked out right away after watching this video! Hahaha~ thank you !

Can't believe I'm this early. I wish I can be this early in TCMC next birthday sale.

[@daydreamsinpastels]

Congrats on your Wonderpen workshop and pop-up, that sounds so exciting. I always forget that you have prompts on your site (T__T) I took a screen shot to start doing this upcoming week.

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so muchhhh!! hehe have fun writing!

[@fishheads08]

Fello introvert here! I totally get what you're saying, my friend! I must tell you, Helen, your stuff makes me happy. I enjoy my cute emotis in my Cousin it brings a lot of joy to my days which are highly intense as I finish my student teaching, school, and apprenticeship. Being able to see those cute little bald heads in the chaos of my life makes me smile. Thank you for your fun artwork; your success is so well-deserved! It was nice to take some time to journal alongside you! My son (who is 13) is curious if your emoti has a name? Also, once I complete my degree, I am considering treating myself to a Vanishing Point. What size nib is yours?

[@lennoxraynewood2741]

I bought a bunch of planner stamps this year to use with my ranger ink pad thinking it would save me a little time every week only to discover the ink seeps through the page to the back side so ended up having to draw or write everything by hand anyways plus wasting some money on something I wasn’t able to send back. Maybe the marker thing will work I’ll need to try with my crayola markers to see.

[@Bunnyplans]

Using the tombow for stamping is GENIUS! Did I also see you use colored pencils?

[@2BRnot2BRipper]

Wait?! We have wooden stamps ?! When?! How?! Where?! 😮 lol “A pop up is different…as I’m just popping up!!!@😅😅😅😅😅

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Wait, there is no way you missed them Helen!!!

[@2BRnot2BRipper]

@@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo I really don’t think I have it. Going to go check out the site and get it now.

[@hajuzt]

Thank you so much for another lovely video 🙂 There must be an episode somewhere that I have not seen, because it has been a minute since your "take a note" planner has been featured. Is it no longer in your system? Also - I love your humor 🙂 Lind regards Hanne from Denmark

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much for watchinggg!!! I addressed this in.... I think my June planner update? I stopped using it towards the end of June! Thank you again for the love~

[@hajuzt]

@@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo The love is so very Well deserved! I Will find that episode asap - and know that you have a very happy fan in Denmark ♥️ Hanne

[@melodymer]

Helen, I noticed you don’t use a pencil board anymore. What’s the secret of keeping the pages so clean???

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hello! Pencil boards aren't necessary when I use my fountain pens since the ink doesn't transfer ^_^

[@SRPGMH]

A question: what's the last pen you used in video the grayish one???

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hello!! Is it the clicky one? If so, pilot vanishing point ^_^

[@anna7276]

I’m surprised you don’t make yourself sardine sandwiches!!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hahaha I have!!! I prefer sardines in salads though hmm

[@MsACE88]

Where was the cat and yarn washie from 😮

Because I'm just popping up... XD

[@40isfab87]

Is your fountain pen fine or x-fine nib
